  • Preparing annual budgets and rolling forecasts, analyzing performance, and identifying variances.
  • Supporting the implementation of new ERP systems and financial planning tools.
  • Ensuring all site-level transactions are accurate, complete, and properly recorded.
  • Working cross-functionally with internal teams and external partners to improve financial processes.
  • Developing and maintaining strong financial policies and procedures in line with company standards.
  • Contributing to the preparation of management and Board-level financial reports.
  • Providing actionable insights and recommendations to senior leadership to improve site performance.

What You’ll Need To Be Successful:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or related discipline.
  • CPA designation (or in progress).
  • 7–10+ years of finance and accounting experience, with strong preference for mining industry exposure.
  • Deep knowledge of IFRS and/or US GAAP and experience with financial reporting and consolidations.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead teams and work effectively in a site-based, matrixed organization.
  • Expert-level Excel skills and familiarity with financial systems and ERP platforms.
  • Strong analytical thinking, communication skills, and attention to detail.
  • Comfortable operating in a fast-paced environment with a compressed workweek schedule.
